Jessica Simpson Files For Divorce
There will be no reunion for Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey, the Associated Press reports.
Simpson cited irreconcilable differences in a petition for divorce filed with the Los Angeles Superior Court on Dec. 16.
The couple jointly announced their separation Nov. 23 following months of rumours that their marriage wasn’t as happy as they insisted.
Lachey, 32, and Simpson, 25, had no prenuptial agreement made when they married in October 2002 and in the petition, Simpson asked the court not to grant Lachey spousal support.
Lachey was worth more money when the couple wed, but thanks to the success of their MTV reality series, “Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica”, Simpson’s earning power skyrocketed. The singer-actress earned more than $30 million last year.
Simpson’s publicist, Rob Shuter, confirmed the filing to the Associated Press but declined further comment.
Calls to Lachey’s publicist were not returned.
